(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID153241
Official gene symbolCEP120
Full namecentrosomal protein 120kDa
Aliases,CCDC100,DKFZp686I06246,FLJ36090,FLJ38327,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a protein that functions in the microtubule-dependent coupling of the nucleus and the centrosome. A similar protein in mouse plays a role in both interkinetic nuclear migration, which is a characteristic pattern of nuclear movement in neural progenitors, and in neural progenitor self-renewal. Mutations in this gene are predicted to result in neurogenic defects. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq]
